Not a bad looking spread you've got there, Misa - make mine a double! Hooray for finally getting everything wrapped at our old storage place today. Got a big thumbs-up on the cleaning, too, then I ran all the stuff we decided not to keep over to recology (sort of like a dump, but they go through everything with a fine-tooth comb to separate out recycle-able and re-usable goods). Bits of progress on numerous other techy projects after getting back, sometimes things move forward a little bit at a time and I'm cool with that.

Hi Gyre, YG and GH. I was a bit too busy to take any pics but we did have someone who took a bunch of photos and I'll post a couple when I get them. It's a big show with a cast of about 25, with 20 songs and it runs for about 2 hours including intermission. This is the 11th production in our 20 year history and I have been involved in all but the very first one. We have been rehearsing for about 5 hours every night for the last two weeks and a bit lighter schedule since October. Yeah, I really do get my life back when the curtain falls on Saturday night.

well I think I got all the welding done on the ovens (I always miss something, but it should be dang close, I'll know in daylight), and only one........well one and a half, mishaps. while turning the ovens on welding table, it over balanced and fell off! Ka bam!! luckily, it is strong enough and didn't fall apart.so forklifted it back up, and promptly set my sleeve on fire. hahaha.
